Cambridge Model 20 Issues by B. Iten

JAR 22 STANDARDS by Gordon Schubert
Could someone explain the logic behind the JAR 22 standards. I just sold an L33 Blanik. Maximum pilot weight per the manual was 283 lbs. but according to JAR 22 could only be 242 lbs. Which is legal?

Avoiding VNE by Phoebus_810
Buy a Phoebus with a tail drag chute. If you get in trouble, just pull the handle and the maximum speed , even in a vertical dive, will be about 3/4 of VNE.
